DeKalb County Judicial Operations

Agency-specific information:

Notice to the bar and citizens:

A criminal case in the DeKalb Superior Court (DeKalb Judicial Circuit) is not assigned to a specific Judge until the District Attorney makes a decision to bring charges in the case.
Charges in a criminal case in Superior Court proceed by way of an indictment returned by the Grand Jury or by way of an accusation drawn by the District Attorney. When the indictment or accusation is filed with the Clerk of Superior Court, the case is then assigned to one of ten Superior Court Judges.
Prior to a case being filed, the case is “unindicted” and identified with a “D” number. It is not assigned to a specific Superior Court Judge.
All questions regarding “D” number cases should therefore be directed to the District Attorney’s office.
